A Foucault Switch, a type of automatic circuit interrupter used widely in the late 19th century & invented by the French physicist Jean Bernard Léon Foucault (1819-1868). During that century, scientists and engineers created new uses for electricity & developed increasingly sophisticated circuit elements to control instruments & electric phenomena. Among these elements were different interrupters—basic components that open or close an electric circuit to regulate conduction.

Petite présentation de l'univers et de la mouvance Steampunk ou rétro-futuriste - Lumiere de l'Atelier

Bonjour à tous, Je ne sait pas si vous vous en souvenez, mais il m'est parfois arrivé de vous décrire une de mes créations comme étant inspiré du style Steampunk. Parce c'est un univers qui me plait et dont je baigne dedans déjà depuis pas mal d'années...

Battery, 1800 For the battery we must thank the frog. In the 1780s, the Italian physicist Luigi Galvani discovered that a dead frog's leg would twitch when he touched it with two pieces of metal. Galvani had created a crude circuit and the phenomenon was taken up by his friend, the aristocratic Professor Alessandro Volta, whose voltaic cells stacked in a Voltaic pile amazed Napoleon. The pile was also the first battery, whose successors power more than a third of the gadgets on this list.

This 'electric breeze' machine was used in British hospitals like this London one around 1905. It was thought beneficial to generate an electrostatic charge and deliver the electricity to a patient.
